The Black Image

Saturday 12th March

‘A very revealing presentation and film which shows how the image of African people has been deliberately altered by Europeans to show negativity. In the 15th century African people were portrayed in European art as noble, sophisticated and intelligent. With the rise of Empire these images were thrown out and replaced with demeaning stereotypes which still inform public opinion via children’s books and Hollywood movies..

Admission free if booked via eventbrite. Donations accepted on the day. This event will start at 6.00pm and latecomers may not get a seat.You can view our Nzingha lectures at www.youtube.com/blackhistorywalks
